A method for adjusting a resonant frequency of a resonator without impairing piezoelectricity that includes preparing a lower lid; arranging a substrate with a lower surface that faces the lower lid and forming a first electrode layer, a piezoelectric film, and a second electrode layer on an upper surface of the substrate. Moreover, a vibration arm is formed that bends and vibrates from the first electrode layer, the second electrode layer, and the piezoelectric film and an upper lid faces the lower lid with the resonator interposed therebetween. The method further includes adjusting a frequency of the resonator before or after arranging the upper lid by exciting the vibration arm by applying a voltage between the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer and by causing a part of the vibration arm to collide with either or both of the lower lid and the upper lid.
